Comfortable Invisalign® Clear Braces in Philadelphia
Invisalign® is a discreet, comfortable, and effective orthodontic treatment that uses clear plastic mouthpieces to gently align the teeth.
Patients wear each set of clear aligners for two weeks before wearing the next set in the series. Treatment time is comparable to traditional braces. Aligners are removable, so patients can continue to eat any foods they wish. Meanwhile, brushing and flossing are as easy as ever. Our Philadelphia cosmetic dentists are committed to giving you the beautiful smile you deserve. Dentistry at 1818 is now an Invisalign Preferred Provider!
Invisalign® is a clear plastic aligner (tray) worn over the teeth that gradually alters the alignment of the teeth. This allows for a more subtle orthodontic treatment than traditional braces: significant for anyone who would like to avoid the brackets and wires of standard braces. Invisalign® treatment is customized for each patient with a series of aligners worn progressively as teeth move into the desired positions.
How does Invisalign® Treatment Work?
Invisalign is an effective treatment for a wide variety of orthodontic issues including:
Crooked Teeth
There isn’t enough room in the jaw for teeth to fit normally.
Overbite
Top and bottom teeth don’t meet.
Underbite
Lower teeth protrude past upper front teeth.
Open Bite
Top and bottom teeth don’t meet.
Crossbite
Upper and lower jaws don’t line up.
Gap Teeth
Extra spaces between teeth.
Mix of Baby and Permanent Teeth
Phase 1 orthodontic treatment for growing children with a mix of baby and permanent teeth.
Generally Straight Teeth
When you just want a more beautiful smile.
Whether you are interested in orthodontics for yourself or for a child, an Invisalign® consultation at our Philadelphia dental practice can help you decide.
Preferred Provider of Invisalign in Philadelphia
For many people Invisalign treatment is the answer. Whether you just want to love your smile a little more, you think you’ve got a particularly tough case, or you’re a teen and your teeth are still growing in, see what Invisalign treatment can do for you.
At an initial consultation, you will determine with our cosmetic dentists whether Invisalign treatment is right for you. A completely personalized treatment plan will be mapped out with your goals in mind. Then, impressions and pictures of your teeth will be taken for digitization purposes.
Using 3-D modeling technology, your doctor will plan your tooth movements throughout your entire treatment timeline. You’ll be able to see a virtual representation of your teeth before, during, and after completion of the Invisalign process so you can see what your smile should look like when you’re done with treatment.
A series of customized aligners will be created, based on this plan. They will gradually move your teeth into perfect position. The aligners are clear, flexible, comfortable, and removable.
Over the course of treatment, you may come in to the office to allow our Invisalign dentists to check on your progress.
